Coronavirus. It can be a fear provoking phrase. Are you scouring the internet finding new ways to be afraid? Coming up with what-if scenarios that only make your anxiety over this worse? You are not alone in this. Psychology Today article states "Uncertainty is one of the most difficult human experiences. Uncertainty means not having control over what might happen to us." They have come up with the acronym FLARE to help think through these fearful times rationally. F-Feel. L-Label. A-Allow. R-respond. E-expand awareness. The goal of their new approach is to "allow yourself to experience uncertainty, disengage from attempts to get rid of it, and allow yourself to respond to the discomfort of uncertainty in helpful ways".

3-Dimensional sLORETA Z Score Neurofeedback: Z Score sLORETA biofeedback of Brodmann areas in the brain, “Hubs”, “Modules” and “Default Mode Network” and 3-dimensional locations registered to a reference MRI. Includes ‘Live’ LORETA Coherence & Phase Differences from 88 Brodmann areas. The neurofeedback protocol is based on a symptom checklist combined with sLORETA Z scores measured during a QEEG analysis to aid in linking patient’s symptoms and complaints to functional specialization in the brain.
LORETA Source Correlations:
Compute the time series spatial-temporal correlation between a MRI registered region of interest (ROI) and other regions of the brain. View the strength of spatial-temporal correlation in 2-D color contour maps that order the distance from the reference ROI in centimeters over 1 to 40 Hz. Use the Key Institute Viewer to display the source correlation from a reference ROI in 1 Hz increments co-registered to the Montreal Neurological Institute’s standardized MRI.
3-D Source Analysis – Mouse click activation of LORETA source analysis to help evaluate the sources of focal events in the EEG. Frequency domain and time domain analyses of EEG events like spikes & waves, spindles, beta bursts, theta bursts, as well as FFT analyses are standard in NeuroGuide™ deluxe. LORETA normative database comparisons are an add on product.
3-D Source Correlations – Evaluate the correlations between 66 different regions of interest with Brodmann area mapping and conformity to the standards of the human brain mapping program with Talariach atlas coordinates for easy integration with PET, SPECT and fMRI.

What is LORETA neurofeedback? — Fixxl Ltd
To explain what LORETA neurofeedback is we have to start by looking at what EEG signals actually represent - and what they don't.

For young children, getting hurt is just a part of life. Unfortunately suffering from a concussion or traumatic brain injury (TBI) from said injury is becoming much more common. From 2010-2015, concussion diagnoses among tweens and teens ages 10-19 skyrocketed 71%. These seemingly mild head injuries can be devastating in ways you might not imagine, the consequences that can extend far beyond the initial blow to cause a lasting and negative impact on a child’s life.

Neurofeedback gets you back in the zone: New study from biomedical engineers demonstrates that a brain-computer interface can improve your performance
Researchers have shown -- for the first time -- that they can use online neurofeedback to modify an individual's arousal state to improve performance in a demanding sensory motor task, such as flying a plane or driving in suboptimal conditions.

Accepting difficult thoughts and emotions as part of life allows you to move forward and pursue your goals and embody your values. Research suggests the harder we try to dismiss difficult thoughts and emotions, the more intense they can become and the longer they will stay with us. Increasing psychological flexibility tends to correspond with lower levels of psychological distress. Lower psychological flexibility corresponds to much higher levels of anger,stress, worry, depression and other feelings that diminish quality of life. We can often identify factors that may contribute to psychological inflexibility in a QEEG. We can also train the brain to be more adaptable and flexible which increases psychological flexibility.

Psycho physiology and bio neurofeedback are the future. You can change your world.
Transcript of "Your brain hallucinates your conscious reality"
TED Talk Subtitles and Transcript: Right now, billions of neurons in your brain are working together to generate a conscious experience -- and not just any conscious experience, your experience of the world around you and of yourself within it. How does this happen? According to neuroscientist Anil....

An electroencephalograph uses precious metal electrodes to detect a voltage between at least two electrodes located on the scalp, The EEG records both excitatory postsynaptic potentials (EPSPs) and inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (IPSPs) that largely occur in dendrites in pyramidal cells located in macrocolumns, several millimeters in diameter, in the upper cortical layers. EEG biofeedback, which is also called neurofeedback, monitors both slow and fast cortical potentials. Slow cortical potentials are gradual changes in the membrane potentials of cortical dendrites that last from 300 ms to several seconds. These potentials include the contingent negative variation (CNV), readiness potential, movement-related potentials (MRPs), and P300 and N400 potentials. Fast cortical potentials range from 0.5 Hz-100 Hz. The main frequency ranges include delta, theta, alpha, the sensorimotor rhythm, beta, and gamma as shown in The synchronous delta rhythm ranges from 0.5-3.5 Hz, is the dominant frequency from ages 1-2, and is associated in adults with deep sleep and brain pathology like trauma and tumors, and learning disability. The synchronous theta rhythm ranges from 4-7 Hz, is the dominant frequency in healthy young children, and is associated with drowsiness or starting to sleep, REM sleep, hypnagogic imagery (intense imagery experienced before the onset of sleep), hypnosis, attention, and processing of cognitive and perceptual information.
